  15. //!
  16. //! Given an `Iterable` `xs` with a linearization of `[x1, x2, ...]` and
  17. //! a non-negative `IntegralConstant` `n`, `drop_front_exactly(xs, n)` is
  18. //! an iterable with the same tag as `xs` whose linearization is
  19. //! `[xn+1, xn+2, ...]`. In particular, note that this function does not
  20. //! mutate the original iterable in any way. If `n` is not given, it
  21. //! defaults to an `IntegralConstant` with a value equal to `1`.
  22. //!
  23. //! It is an error to use `drop_front_exactly` with `n > length(xs)`. This
  24. //! additional guarantee allows `drop_front_exactly` to be better optimized
  25. //! than the `drop_front` function, which allows `n > length(xs)`.
  26. //!
  27. //!
  28. //! @param xs
  29. //! The iterable from which elements are dropped.
  30. //!
  31. //! @param n
  32. //! A non-negative `IntegralConstant` representing the number of elements
  33. //! to be dropped from the iterable. In addition to being non-negative,
  34. //! `n` must be less than or equal to the number of elements in `xs`.
  35. //! If `n` is not given, it defaults to an `IntegralConstant` with a value
  36. //! equal to `1`.
